    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Reads Spenser&#039;s  imitation of SqT in &quot;Faerie Queene,&quot; Book IV, in light of MLE, which introduces SqT in early editions. The sequence alters the Squire&#039;s characterization and helps to frame SqT &quot;as the product of an active, metafictional revision.&quot; When viewed together with KnT and Anel, the falcon&#039;s complaint in SqT reveals &quot;a pattern of Chaucerian self-revision that Spenser appropriates to claim his place in a variously national and international tradition.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
